Shop / carfidant scratch and swirl remover
The 3M Scratch Removal System is designed to eliminate minor scratches, scuffs, and other small defects on automotive clear coats through a three-stage process of sanding, compounding, and polishing. This scratch remover for cars comes with all the necessary specialty supplies to complete the job, with the user only needing to provide a standard household drill and other basic household items.
The system's simple 5-step process makes it easy to remove scratches, providing users with everything they need, as well as step-by-step guidance, to repair small clear coat scratches on vehicles. Consisting of a three-stage system of sanding, compounding, and polishing the clear coat, the 3M Scratch Removal System is designed to remove defects to the thin outer coat of a car's finish, such as fine scratches to the door handle, door panels, or the trunk.
Vehicles are manufactured with exterior finishes comprising a variety of layers, including primer, colored paint, and a final, very thin top layer known as the clear coat. The 3M Scratch Removal System is designed to remove defects to the clear coat with the added aid of a user-supplied household drill. Examples of repairable defects that the system can easily repair include fine scratches from automatic car wash brushes and vegetation scrapes, commonly found in areas such as the door handle or trunk.
The 3M Scratch Removal System's three-tiered approach to scratch removal involves sanding using the included 3000-grit sandpaper to reduce the scratch, applying 3M rubbing compound and refining the scratch area, and finally polishing and restoring the scratch area using a 3M polishing pad, scratch remover compound, and a common household drill. An additional recommended step is to apply automotive wax in the repaired area to protect the car's finish, as the clear coat has been removed.
This procedure, commonly performed by professional technicians in automotive collision shops, car dealerships, detail shops, and assembly plants for high dollar amounts, can now be done by the user for a fraction of the cost. The 3M Scratch Removal System is guaranteed to remove light paint scratches and scuffs from the vehicle's outer clear coat finish and saves users money by allowing them to perform the scratch repair themselves, while improving the paint's appearance.
The kit contains a disc pad holder, 3000-grit abrasive square, purple compounding pad, black polishing pad, 3M rubbing compound (1 oz), 3M scratch remover (1 oz), and step-by-step directions for use. The user supplies a standard household drill (1200-1600 rpm), 3M microfiber detail cloth, spray bottle, water, and paper towels.
It's important to note that scratches that cannot be completely removed go deeper than the surface of the clear coat, and 3M will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from the use of the 3M product, except where prohibited by law.
